Last update: December 2025
Fai’s journey began as a hairdresser completing her nvq nearly 20 years ago followed by graduating with a diploma at the prestigious Delamar Academy of Makeup, one of the top makeup schools. With a diverse portfolio that spans across the fashion and television industry, Fai has worked on high-profile shows such as Love Island and The X Factor. These fast-paced, high-demand environments have shaped her ability to stay composed and work efficiently under pressure. Whether it's a last-minute change or an unexpected challenge, Fai remains a calming presence, always focused on delivering results without compromising the experience.
Her extensive background in both beauty and high-stress settings has made Fai a sought-after expert for brides looking for someone who not only understands the importance of beauty but also recognizes the emotional and mental well-being that’s crucial on such a significant day. Her makeup caters for all ethnicities, ages and can work with curly hair. Fai works by understanding each persons personality and reflects the look through that rather than generate the same look or 'trend' on everyone. She is very friendly, professional and prides herself with her time keeping.
For 4 years in a row Fai has won best hair and makeup artist in the South East via hitched where her reviews speak for themselves. Eye brow and lash services are also available before the big day.

Reviews for Fai Archer Hair and Makeup
Fai the Makeup and Hair Wizard
The first thing my husband said to me when I got to the bottom of the aisle was "wow you look stunning". I mean is there anything more you could want!??
The best makeup artist there is
I had another makeup artist cancel on me a month before the big day, and I was so panicked but I messaged fai she got back to me to quickly and was happy to squeeze me in to help.
Not only did she do an amazing job with the makeup she was genuinely so good to have around on my wedding morning, her personality is brilliant she’s so funny and lovely and I genuinely forgot she wasn’t part of my wedding party. She also saved the day of the whole wedding she dropped my maid of honour to the venue when we were running late and then drove her back to where we were getting ready when the bouquets were forgotten and back again!!! Literally saved the day without question. You were such a delight fai thank you so much for being apart of my special day you really were amazing! Couldn’t have asked for better.
Fai-ry Magic!
100% recommend
She had no issues with me changing anything on the day and she's lovely so you really can tell her if you don't like something or prefer it another way.
The only issue was me being so indecisive but she was absolutely great!
Highly Recommend Fei!
Perfect hair & make up
Fai did a fantastic job and made me feel totally at ease on the day.
She also did my duaghter and sisters hair & make up & flowers girls too all of which looked beautiful.
The communication was good all the way through the process and good advice on my trail.
Not only is Fai a great professional hair & mua but a lovely person too.
I would definitely recommend Fai to future brides.
Thank you Fai xx
It was a pleasure, highly recommended!
Perfect look for my wedding day!
An unbelievably amazing service
My mum and I both had a trial, we were both nervous as we don't wear much make up usually and didn't really know what we wanted. Fai was chilled, friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel totally at ease. We loved the hair and make up and felt really excited for the big day. A few days before, Fai waxed my brows and they were really natural and helped the overall look. On the day, Fai did the hair and make up for myself, mum and 2 adult bridesmaids. She was a calming influence, didn't feel rushed, and made us all feel really special. Everyone loved their looks, and both hair and make up lasted all day and looked great in the photos.
I will be using Fai now for my regular hair/beauty appointments, as I've found an absolute gem!!
